The City of Albemarle’s annual comprehensive financial report has been judged by a panel to meet the standards of the program, which includes demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the report.
“Receiving this award for the sixth year in a row is proof of the City of Albemarle’s dedication to sound management, transparency, and good stewardship of resources as outlined in the city’s mission statement,” said Jacob Weavil, Albemarle finance director. “We thank the GFOA for recognizing the work of our Finance Department and the entire City of Albemarle as organization to achieve this honor.”
